Everyone is invited to join us at our End of Year Party on Saturday, Sept. 22nd. Please plan on making it. It's a Potluck, so plan on bringing something to share and a beverage of your choice.

We'll be giving out all our awards for the Multispecies Fishing League, Duluth Area Bass League and Cloquet Area Fishing League. So it will be a great time to share fishing stories and eat lots of great food.

It is going to be held at Mark Jukich's home in Hermantown. Jukich's have always been great hosts and have a great location they share with us. Directions are posted in the forums.

Thanks to the following leagues for helping get the Mentor Duluth kids from the YMCA out fishing on Chub Lake. Minnesota Multispecies Tournament Series, Duluth Area Bass League, Cloquet Area Fishing League, Duluth Area Fishing League, Ultimate Angler Challenge, Trollers Association, and Fishing Webmaster. We even had an extra boat on this day. That's awesome.

All the kids had a great time, life jackets, and we will shortly be sending them copies of the photos we took of the day.
